The Emmy Awards officially announced this year's list of hotly-anticipated
2011 nominees on July 14th.
The 63rd Emmy Awards ceremony followed -much later- with a live telecast
this Sunday evening, September 18, 2011 at 8PM ET on FOX.
Hosting this year's awards show was popular TV star Jane Lynch who won an
Emmy last year for her portrayal as Sue Slyvester on the FOX hit, "Glee".
The Emmys have been known as the Oscars of the television industry ever
since the first awards were given out by the Academy of Television Arts &
Sciences in 1949.
In the 1950's, the name "Emmy" was a feminization of "immy", the nickname
for image orthicon tubes used in early television cameras. Today, the annual
broadcast is watched by more than 600 million viewers around the world.
